About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, an old lady wheeling her shopping cart stopped in front of Asda’s entrance. Suddenly, her little dog yipped and pulled towards the loading dock area. The owner followed curiously, only to discover boxes being delivered that seemed to contain something more than groceries. Curious, she peeked inside one box and found… nothing but a few apples and oranges. Turns out, it was just another day at Asda, where even the loading docks had their own surprises. With a smile, she waved goodbye to her little dog and went home, leaving behind a neighbor who’d been watching from his window with a puzzled expression.

2. In the early morning, a little girl with pigtails followed her mother into Asda. Suddenly, she pointed and whispered, ‘Mommy, look—there’s a ghost pushing a shopping cart!’ The mother looked around but saw nothing unusual. Smiling gently, she said, 'Honey, I think you’re seeing things. Let’s get some bananas.' The girl giggled and reached for an apple, completely forgetting about the ghostly sighting. That evening, as they were leaving, the delivery driver waved goodbye and muttered, ‘See ya next time, little ghost!’

3. At dawn, when most supermarkets are empty, a delivery driver noticed something unusual: someone kept rearranging the cans of beans on the top shelf. Curious, he followed the mysterious can-mover and found an elderly gentleman carefully straightening each row. Turns out, it was just his neighbor, who believed that perfectly aligned beans brought good luck for everyone in the neighborhood.

4. At midnight, when only the night security guard patrolled the aisles, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: someone was methodically rearranging the cans on the shelves. Curious, he followed the figure and found an elderly gentleman meticulously reorganizing the beans. ‘Sir,’ asked the driver, ‘what are you doing?’ The man replied, smiling warmly, ‘I’m just helping Asda maintain its perfect order.’ Turns out, it was a neighborhood retiree who did this every week after his evening walk.
